One service mathematics has rmdcred the 'Et moi,.•.• si j'avait su comment en rcvenir. human race. It has put common sense back je n'y semis point aile.' whc:rc it belongs, on the topmost shcIl next Jules Verne to the dusty callister labc:1lcd 'discarded non sense'. The series is divergent; thererore we may be Eric T. Bell able to do something with iL O. Hcavisidc Mathematics is a tool for thought. A highly necessary tool in a world where both feedback and non linearities abound. Similarly, all kinds of parts of mathematics serve as tools for other parts and for other sciences. Applying a simple rewriting rule to the quote on the right above one finds such statements as: 'One service topology has rendered mathematical physics.'; 'One service logic has rendered com puter science.'; 'One service category theory has rendered mathematics.'. All arguably true. And alI statements obtainable this way form part of the raison d'etre of this series.
